Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) is one of the leading national universities in Malaysia and has been highly ranked by QS University Ranking for many years. While remaining the premium university offering world-class education and research, UTM has widened its opportunities for continuous improvement by becoming part of ASEAN University Network - Quality Assurance (AUN-QA) and joining the 315th AUN-QA Programme Assessment, marking the very first time that UTM’s programmes were assessed under the AUN-QA frameworks.

AUN-QA is carrying the strong momentum of last year into 2023 by starting with three programme assessments at Holy Angel University (HAU), Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), and Central Luzon State University (CLSU). The team is back and ready to provide more top quality assessments for another year!

The 11th AUN-QA Training Course for Accomplishing Programme Assessment (AUN-QA Tier 1 Training), Version 4.0, held in Bangkok with participants of various backgrounds from Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Viet Nam, successfully concluded the last Tier 1 training conducted this year.

The Holidays are coming! But the AUN-QA team will not stop until then with quality programme assessments, this time with 4 more to finish up the year of 2022. As this will also be the final overview of the year, we would also like to take this time to give thanks to all our member universities for your continued trust in our AUN-QA programme assessments, and we are looking forward to providing more in 2023!

The AUN-QA team is continuing strong with site visits for Programme Assessments! The 308th AUN-QA PA at Ateneo de Manila University, the Philippines, marks the third time a site visit has been conducted ever since COVID lockdowns were relaxed quite recently. With three recently conducted within two months, AUN-QA is making sure to set a strong statement that site visits are back in full swing and they are ready for more in 2023!

AUN-QA finished the month of November conducting programme assessments to two prestigious universities of Viet Nam. For the 305th PA, the AUN-QA team provided assessment at Ho Chi Minh University of Technology and Education and had the opportunity to visit the university onsite. Following this was the 307th PA being an online/remote site visit and was the first time AUN-QA has ever provided assessment for Dalat University.
